The song that really got me into them has to be Helena.
I saw that video and fell in love with the song immediately.
I bought Revenge based on that song alone...that's how much I loved it.
It also seems impossible for me to get sick of it, seriously I think it's iTunes play count is 3 million and counting...Wink

first i heard welcome to the black parade and i kinda liked it
but then i turned on the music video for famous last words and i didnt like it at all
but then i tried it again and i loved it
then i tried black parade video, i thought it was creepy as hell and turned it off!
after about 3 days i put it back on to see it and liked it
now i have like all of their videos on my myspace
their music is sooo good

This thread sounds a lot like the 'What was your first impression...' thread. Don't worry though. I'm not gonna report it, I'm replying to it.

First mcr song i heard was Helena. My friend bought LOTMS and she just had to show me this amazing band she discovered. So she showed me the vid and i'm nearly a little embarrassed to admit their music made me a little emo. I said to her mom 'they make me laugh and cry at the same time'. It was incredible how their music made me feel, and just with one song! So then i went out and bought LOTMS.

I thought there was a thread like this.
Oh well..
The first time I heard INO I started liking them.
I was at my friends house.
We were flipping radio stations and we heard them playing.
I told her to leave it on.
About 2 weeks later I got their CD.
I got into them pretty quick.
That evolved into loving their music.

Helena. I got into Green Day and heard they were taking MCR on tour with them so I looked them up on Yahoo! Music. I watched the Helena video and have been a fan ever since.

I really hate saying this but it was Welcome To The Black Parade...I feel like a n00b....but anyway I saw the video on MuchMusic and I didn't catch the start of it so I didn't know who it was and I really liked the song and video then when the ending came and I saw that it was My Chemical Romance I seriously thought they got a new lead singer cause the MCR video I saw before was Helena and I liked it but I wasn't that into it and when I saw the lead singer had blonde hair I didn't know who he was cause I the only time I seen an MCR video was when Gerard had long black hair not short blonde hair lol yeah I'm a loser...but then I downloaded WTTBP and listened to it bought a million times. Then I bought all the Cd's and LOTMS. Now I'm hooked on listening to I Brought You My Bullets CD lol...that was little long but yeah.

I had heard I'm Not Ok all over the radio. I got really annoyed by it to tell you the truth. Then one day I was watching MTV2 and the Helena video came on and I was like "Hey! These guys aren't that bad!" So I picked up the CD and listened to it. The song that really got me loving them was "The Jetset Life is Gonna Kill You". After that the rest was love!
